Experience the delicious feeling of naturally organic "wild crafted" softness with a Pure Tussah Silk Baby Blanket!

These blankets are smooth, lightweight and hold in warmth while letting your baby's skin breathe.

Tussah silk is stronger and more resilient than other types of silk. The entire blanket is made of silk- including the trim!

Pure silk products are an excellent choice for your baby's sensitive skin. Silk can promote cell metabolism and strengthen skin cell activity. Silk contains many amino acids, which sometimes help to heal irritated skin, as well as being a natural itch reliever.

How our silk blankets are made:
This type of silk -Tussah - is organically raised and is sometimes called “peace silk” or "veggie silk." Wild Tussah silkworms thrive in tropical or semi-tropical forests. Their silk is gathered after the moth emerges. There are many varieties and shades of wild silk.

Tussah silks are naturally tan, and are generally stronger and more resilient than cultivated "white" silks. Since the Tussah caterpillars eat many kinds of different trees all rich in tannin, the silk is beige- to brownish-toned. The fiber is very long (3” or more), strong, and lustrous. It dyes beautifully, with colors slightly muted by the soft undertone of beige.

Please note: While this silk is "wild crafted", we do not have organic certification. The natural color is not dyed.

Washing your silk blanket: Machine wash on cold/ delicate setting, must be machine dried (delicate cycle) to restore loft. Can be dry cleaned.

This generously sized (39" x 47") silk baby blanket comes packaged in a beautiful gift box.

"This finally solved the too hot/too cold problem of my other baby bedding."
